In this episode, we provide updates on our respective businesses and share how we qualify prospects for our services during the sales process. It's tempting to take the "easy money" of a new client, especially in the early days, but it's better to focus on right-fit clients from the start to set your business up for long-term success.

As always, we also provide updates on Castaway and EditorNinja, which include...

  • Another new hire for EditorNinja!
  • Setting benchmarks for performance before investing in sales/marketing
  • Continuing to iterate on offers until you find the right option
  • Using "slow periods" to dial in your operational efficiency
  • Gearing up for a podcast promo tour

Sound interesting? You should give it a listen. We think you'll really enjoy it.
